The diagram shows a cuboid OABCDEFG with a horizontal base OABC in which OA = 4 ext{ cm} and AB = 15 ext{ cm}. The height OD of the cuboid is 2 ext{ cm}. The point X on AB is such that AX = 5 ext{ cm} and the point P on DG is such that DP = p ext{ cm}, where p is a constant. Unit vectors i, j and k are parallel to OA, OC and OD respectively.

  1. Find the possible values of p such that angle OPX = 90^ 0.
  2. For the case where p = 9, find the unit vector in the direction of \(\overrightarrow{XP}\).
  3. A point Q lies on the face CBFG and is such that \(XQ\) is parallel to AG. Find \(\overrightarrow{XQ}\).
